After Action Report
The Cavaliers outlasted the Lakers 112-102. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Cavaliers cashed in. The Cavaliers came in with something to prove after a loss; Cavaliers' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Lakers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
